Any of these feel familiar?
Lust: When you have inappropriate, wandering thoughts about that man in the produce section of the grocery store…When you read that sexy romance novel everyone was raving about at work…When you don’t change the channel when a sexy scene comes on the television…When you fantasize during the day about another man instead of your husband…When you engage in premarital sex because you’re tired of waiting for Mr. Right…When you push the boundaries you set with your boyfriend, knowing it’s going to go further…
Anger: When you’re stressed and take it out on your kids by snapping at them…When you blow up at your child over his messy room…When you yell instead of explain that difficult math problem during homework time…When you explode on your significant other over something small…When you shoot off that sarcastic text or email because it feels good to be right…When you snap over your shoulder at your spouse during an argument because you like having the last word…
Worry: When your spouse is traveling and you’re worrying over his free time…When your child has a big test at school…When your mom gets a bad report from the doctor…When the phone rings at 3 a.m….When your kid is on custody time with their father…When you can’t reach your significant other on the phone…When there are rumors about your company shutting down or downsizing…When the money in the bank account starts to dwindle…
